Notes

Cooking Tips

  • Use strawberries that are large and symmetrical for easy filling.
  • Don’t skip drying the berries—moisture can ruin the texture.
  • If your filling is runny, refrigerate it for 10–15 minutes before piping.
  • Use a piping bag for neater presentation, especially for parties.
  • Add lemon zest just before serving to keep the flavor fresh and vibrant.
